Hello, my name is Rufus. I am my handler’s service dog. I perform certain duties for my handler. These duties include; interrupt/alert to anxiety by nudging or placing my head in my handler’s lap, calm/comfort from anxiety by laying on top of or leaning against, create space, alert handler if someone is approaching from behind, and wake from a nightmare.
I spend most of my day with my handler. I will be more alert if my handler is not around. I do not like being away from my handler.
